What are some of the firm’s most satisfying successes of the past year and why? Shearman & Sterling has experience adapting and responding quickly to emerging situations while keeping clients top of mind, which was highlighted by our innovative response to COVID-19.

From our COVID-19 Task Force and COVID-19 Resource Center, through which we published 140 pieces of thought leadership and presented 24+ partner-led webinars, to our Global COVID-19 Legislation Tool, an app we developed that provides daily legislative updates to COVID-19 globally, and our COVID-19 Relief Efforts, of which included the launch of a firm-wide global pro bono and community service initiative—our ability to pivot and proactively identify opportunities when faced with challenges allowed us to provide the best representation to our clients during this unprecedented time was a big success for the firm.
